[@ashleyjoyes4425]

Shawnloves Ari yeah me too

[@jujumello0707]

YOU ARE GOING TO DO A BOOK TALK FOR LOOKING FOR ALASKA?? YAYYYYY 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@PeytonReads]

Honestly when I saw Mission Impossible all I did was stare at Henry Cavil 😂 he just looks good in a suit lol

[@emilyrose4776]

Peyton Reads mood

[@savc_theavenger1574]

^ Literally the only reason I want to watch it. 😂😂

[@yasminej4983]

The actual reason I watched the movie 😂

[@Talgikiwi]

That intro.... I literally said to myself "God I love her. This is the content we all deserve"

[@iq12509]

The Crown is such a good show, I’m like 99% sure you’d love it! The cinematography and the sets are literally so amazing, not to mention that fact that the story is so investing even if it might seem boring when you read about the history.

[@ALovelyJaunt]

I love it when a single voice actor is able to capture all the character voices.

[@natalienagel6617]

Yes Looking for Alaska!!! I’m so excited to watch the book talk! Also, I just rewatched Princess Diaries last night. I love it so much! Truly an iconic movie.

[@averyjeanne]

Riverdale is everyone’s favorite least favorite show

[@mercedesdickerson]

I didn’t like season 2 as much as season 1, but I couldn’t stop watching it😬

[@laurafayehp]

Mercedes Dickerson who actually prefers Season 2 though? 😂

[@edensylvester13]

Accurate I had such a love/hate relationship with S2 (really just addicted/hate)

[@phebsterxxx]

same here

[@bat5092]

I READ ALL THE DARKEST MINDS BOOKS IN THE PAST WEEK AND I FINISHED IN THE AFTERLIGHT AND I'M OBSESSED

[@readingmalfunction1173]

Absolutely loving the intro music to this little monthly series. Can't get enough of it

[@jordanmessy9749]

I finally read the host for the first time this month and it was absolutely amazing!!

[@thomasturbano1105]

i still can't believe christine just read looking for alaska last month

[@sydneysbooks]

I also rewatched the Princess Diaries this month too! In July I started New Girl and have been flying through it!

[@Talierau3]

i can't wait for the next few booktalksssss

[@farfromhuman558]

I ate looking for Alaska this month too!!!!! I can't wait for the book review, but I also need the book review for tower of dawn!!!

[@amanekabbaj]

Omg I literally watched mission impossible tonight. I don’t remember the first one but I just love that Rebecca Ferguson and Vanessa Kerby were in it and so bad ass. I haven’t seen Christopher Robin yet but I rewatched goodbye Christopher Robin and it’s so good.

[@reelyintofilm5189]

I am so excited to hear you thoughts on looking for Alaska, I might reread it before I watch it. When do you think the booktalk will be up?

[@marianaiazzetti6986]

Lucy Liu is such a good actress that I watched set it up just for her, but I wasn't disappointed at all. Loved your recommendations, still waiting for a booktalk on Tower of Dawn!!

[@sawyerrials1688]

I lovvveee Looking For Alaska! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on it ❤️

[@chloecarter7977]

You should really watch Anne with an E. I know how you feel about classics, but this is an interesting twist on the original tale and I really believe you would like it.

[@phebsterxxx]

yes, she should.

[@cazziesclexa4764]

They are making a musical episode in season 3 of Riverdale

[@polandbananasBOOKS]

YAYYYY!!!!

[@edensylvester13]

Really?

[@cazziesclexa4764]

Eden Gallagher yeah the creator confirmed it

[@owenraymond2707]

I absolutely LOVED Looking for Alaska so I cant wait to hear you feelings about it!

[@lelem1052]

I love you Christine. You inspire me so much and you're such an honest awesome person

[@Alice-rc2hn]

Yer I'm with you on The Handmaid's Tale. So tense but also flipping amazing. The Darkest Minds is only just out in the UK 🇬🇧 today, so I'll be watching it this weekend for sure!! Can't wait.

[@vrindasview2714]

yaaaaaay you got back to the handmaid's tale! that was all I was watching every week a few months ago it was the best

[@emmad6760]

I've only watched the very first episode of Handmaid's tale. I really need to get back on that!

[@withcindy]

set it up was cheesy and predictable but it's a nice movie to watch when you want to just turn your brain off!

[@iq12509]

Honestly, the Princess Diaries will forever be THE teen movie for me

[@TasneemChoudhury362]

Started the throne of glass series this month so Ive already read 4 books this month! (waiting for the next few books in the mail!!!)

[@AllysonKing]

Selling our house and I’ve been so so so stressed that I needed a fun video like this especially with all my books packed up. Thanks you always crack me up

[@umnia4316]

Have you been watching Younger?? This season is so good!!! Love these vids ❤️

[@kellyreadingbooks]

So many people gave hate in the riverdale Facebook comments on that musical episode and I loved it too!! Happy to see someone geeking out about Riverdale as much as I do!

[@erinmariecece]

Best thing I saw all month was Mamma Mia Here We Go Again. I think it's my favorite movie of the year. SO GOOD.

[@nabeel2453]

Christine you should definitely see this show on HBO called Sharp Objects which is based on the novel by Gillian Flynn. It’s super cool, once you start watching you can’t stop 🌟

[@margoshamelnikova]

Omg I love stories I ate this moth! Thank you Christine

[@beatrizmora1359]

I just saw christopher robin today! It was so cute and sweet and eeyore made me laugh so much. Like you said, all the stuff with the animals was super fun and the humans was sort of like ok get to pooh and friends please but it was a wonderful fuzzy feeling film over all. I think its one of those comfort movies I'll come back to on a rainy day

[@LauraLopez-jl2bj]

But have you caught up on The 100 though? We need a review on that too Christine! The first book you talked about sounds really interesting I'm going to give it a try

[@athena986k]

So I really think you should watch the Marvelous miss Maisel on amazon prime. It's literally the best and made by the same people who made the Gilmore girls. It's got a 1950s backdrop when it was unheard of for a woman to be a comedian.

[@polandbananasBOOKS]

i've watched it and i love it!

[@athena986k]

polandbananasBOOKS did you see they have the trailer out for season 2?

[@lidya4951]

i think i am going to watch the alienist now

[@somedaysoon9551]

I read Tempsts and Slaughter just a couple days ago! It's soooo gooood!😍😍😍❤❤❤

[@michaela1823]

I completely agree about Mission Impossible, i nearly fell asleep at one part as well.

[@BostonBookBitty]

I need to sit down and finally watch the Alienist. It looks amazing!

[@daydreaming11117]

I was saving this video for this morning before my first day of school. I love them! Have you watched the movie Game Night with Rachel McAdams? it's very very good! I'm not a comedy fan but this one has become of my favorites.

[@hibaz5157]

Christine you should watch this show called the end of the ****ing world. Its really weird and cool and I think you'll like it lol

[@nalad9387]

such a good show!! christine would love it.

[@hibaz5157]

Nala D ikr! I want more of it

[@juliakeeton6953]

H. Zakir she’s already seen it I’m pretty sure. It’s in one of her past stories of the month.

[@hibaz5157]

Julia Keeton it is? Oh I'll have to check then thankss

[@sandcrab3188]

I couldn't believe you'd never read Tamora Pierce. Her books were what made me a reader. :)

[@JayGTheAwkwardBookworm]

Omg yes the princess diaries :’) my childhood

[@rachelvanrooyen7410]

Great video Christine! Where did you get that t-shirt?! I love it!

[@cerenhacioglu]

i’m in love with your hair😍

[@shay8339]

I LOVED a reaper at the gates. So I'm waiting for your booktalk:)

[@edensylvester13]

I watched both Princess Diaries this month too

[@biancam.5864]

I just have to recommend the Netflix show Anne With An E!!!! It's wonderful and the second season came out last July. I honestly really want a third season, so pleasseee watch it, or at least give it a try. (tbh, Anne is low-key annoying at first but you love her by the third episode)

[@obianujuchinemelu5455]

Please tell me you'll be doing a long ass book talk on bright we burn, the third book in 'and I darken' series. Please🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@JanvanEs]

Riverdale's one of my gave shows! And there's talks of a spinoff!!! (NOT Sabrina) I'm currently trying to get all the remaining books read before Kingdom of Ash! Just got to the part where Arobynn slipped the ring around Aelin's finger in Queen of Shadows. Closed my store May 31st because of 8 years of disappointing numbers so I am looking for a new job and have kind of been neglecting reading while I keep getting more books on my Kindle app on my iPad. Can't remember the last time I ever went to a movie (had this Pathé Unlimited card years ago that let me go to unlimited movies for 18 euro a month but once you cease to go to movies and it kept getting taken off my bank account so many years ago I ended that subscription. Picked up some anime I'm watching either on netflix or Crunchyroll though. Cried about the finale of The Originals last month and am excited for Legacies on the cw. Can't wait for the new seasons and shows coming in Sept / Oct 2018

[@gabbyandthedeathlyhallows1650]

I don't know what's going on with the hair but i lOVE IT

[@annabanana7897]

Yesss!! Ready for some show/book recommendations!!!❤️

[@TheDobby321]

If you like the Alienist you should definitely check out Peaky Blinders! It's also historical and centres on crime and the cinematography is amazing! That and the music are some of my favourite parts.

[@mireillek2841]

Hahaha I found Princess Diaries on Netflix and rewatched it too! They just added the second one, this month :)

[@thebookprincess3533]

YAYY I LOVE THESE VIDEOS

[@AndreaMGC]

Tamora Pierce is one of my all time favourite authors. She's almost on par with JK Rowling for me since I grew up with her books too and her characters are such a huge part of me. My fave series is the Immortals quartet (where Numair is originally seen) and Protector of the Small Quartet. I'll do anything if you read one of those series!!!! PLEASE! lol I know, I know. I'm shouting at the sky. No one takes me suggestions XD I got to meet Tamora Pierce last year and I bawled. I was so star struck I couldn't form words.

[@anjicooper3145]

I read a TON of books this month and sorry for spamming but I really think you’d love Wolf by Wolf by Ryan Graudin. The tag line is really dumb for the book, and it has a bit of a slow start- but I promise it’s so good! (Also To Kill A Kingdom by Alexandra Christo and Pacifica by Kristen Simmons were really good reads that I think you’d enjoy as well :)

[@karaswanson8858]

Enjoyed many of these too! :D

[@stephpiano2908]

This is really random but I'm really digging the two pieces of hair at the front look lol

[@The_sad_skater]

Came here for “looking for Alaska” Now waiting for another week...

[@vanessahansmann2465]

This is literally the third time where i think about you posting a 'stories i ate this month' video, and then you posting one later that day and I'm confused lol

[@kaiawright7760]

A story I ate this month was save the date by morgon matson I got a sined first edition at target and it was such a great book I also wached princess diaries and I forgot how much I loved it I am in the middle of looking for Alaska and am enjoying it also Love your channel so much your shirts awsome!!!!!!!!

[@rorsinann8021]

just going to say that you really lift up my mood.

[@Darrkness]

It's been a few months now but I fell hard for Alexa and Katie on Netflix. I think you would love it too!

[@magicalbookgeekgrace1812]

Hi!!!! ILYSM. My favourite film I watched this month was Deadpool 2.

[@Kissmyasthma16]

Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol (n.4) is my absolute favorite:)

[@jane.jewelll]

Mission impossible was so good I can’t even

[@hollymillard2743]

listen to the audio book children of blood and bone and loved it. would love to know your thought's

[@annaliesepearl3407]

Are you going to make a video releasing the cover of your book??

[@zeryyyyy6835]

Lol amazing video as always the intro tho 😂😂😂😂

[@Lightweaver85]

Numair is in the Immortals quartet😊 it's about a girl named Daine and is my childhood lol

[@derrickoscar2260]

Do you still watch the 100? Would love to hear your thoughts 🤷‍♀️

[@juliakeeton6953]

CHRISTINE WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO READ TOWER OF DAWN!!!!!!!

[@pnwperson]

right?!? i unsubscribed until she reviews it lol came back to check lol

[@kippxbooks]

i feel like i remember you talking about GLOW on netflix and season 2 recently came out and it was soo good... i watched it all in one night lol oops

[@storiesofwonderland8900]

Loving these monthly wrap ups! Also, Looking For Alaska has been optioned by HULU (I believe) for a tv show! If you want more shows like Riverdale, check out Pretty Little Liars and T@gged. I've seen The Darkest Minds and I'm going to see it again today! I really enjoyed it!

[@cassiamariah3558]

I would DEFINITELY recommend the Netflix original movie "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society"! I enjoyed this movie so much, and I think you would too! The story revolves around a writer and a book club and that's all you need to know lol. If anybody does get to watch it, enjoy!

[@Kiki-oo3bw]

She's so crazy 😂😂 I love it.

[@betty8811]

I was kind of amused when you were talking about Riverdale because I feel like I have opposite feelings about than you lol. I loved season 1, I was super invested in it and all of the characters, but I did not feel like that with season 2. You said Betty annoyed you in s1 but you like her in s2. For me I loved Betty in s1, she was my favorite, but in s2 she started to annoy me lol. I do agree with you about Cheryl though, she's my favorite character on the show now.

[@rachelalcantara404]

I am so buying all these books right now 😍😂

[@roisinbelledent209]

Oh my god the alienist was so good

[@reginamiranda3991]

Christine, will you do a trailer reaction for TATBILB?

[@bunnyballoon7501]

Hi Xtinemay!!! you’re a lovely person n have a wonderful day!!

[@dauntlessfire977]

Have you heard of Travelers? It's a netflix original and it's really really really really good. Like if you want a show that's unpredictable and you have to figure out most of yourself, it's awesome for that.

[@happyelephantbooks8803]

Shrek reminder!!! Love it. Next needs to be Shrek 2! 🤩

[@tijanakovac7865]

I frickin love handmaids tale

[@nikolinekoldbaek]

Do you have Letterboxd and/or TvTime?

[@autumnfire1422]

AHHHHH!!!!! I wanna watch The Darkest Minds movie but life is angry at me so I can’t. But I will one day.

[@tovaportmann]

I watched Mission Impossible: Fallout last month too, and I'd never watched any Tom Cruise/Mission Impossible and while it's not my type of movie I feally liked it. Henry Cavil was beautiful.

[@estherasselin5227]

Question for Tamora Pierce readers: What series should I read first/what order do you recommend reading her books in?

[@shinigami956]

what happend with shadow hunters?

[@annajohnson2115]

I have thoughts! Mission: Impossible Fallout I really enjoyed, it had a lot of callbacks to the first one (which is the best one I would strongly recommend). You and I did not have the same Riverdale Season 2 experience, while I am still way too invested and I have a lot of favourite characters I didn’t feel that at any point it got less dumb 😅 And I agree that Set It Up was missing some laughs and bonding moments but I still just had so much fun watching it!

[@emh7687]

Okay but where did you get your shirt? I love it 😂

[@sofiasilva4571]

can you give your opinion on the darkest minds full movie

[@2006emmamonster]

Riverdale YES! Ending of Second season was great!

[@vanessabeerman9448]

I want to watch The Princess Diaries now

[@StarsAndEmbers]

I loved The Spy Who Dumped Me!

[@patriciapages3839]

I'm also binging season two of Riverdale! I think I'm on episode 10 or something.
